In August of 2009,

My gracious mother traveled from Orlando

for an "unexpected visit".

She did NOT just drop in...

I called her to please come stay with me

and help take care of me.

What?!?! 

Take care of a thirty-something, I mean,

29 year old woman! ;)

Anyway,

Some extensive dental work had left me

pretty much "needing some TLC" only a mom can provide.

So she came.

And while I was at work one day I came home to find

my front yard entrance area

COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED.

I only wish I had BEFORE pictures!

And

I wish I could express to her

just HOW MUCH SHE MEANS TO ME!

It is beautiful even still.  Yellow flowers, Red blossoms, growing shrubs...  The whole nine yards!

Boys Christmas 2008 Shot... A Family Tradition.

Although I gotta say, this year wasn't a very "traditional looking" shot!

The Grands! Summer 2009.

I must admit...  It is very difficult to have a two year old, three year old, seven year old, nine year old all in a picture with a very patient sixteen year old to "Pose" appropriately, smile and have their eyes OPEN simultaneously as the camera lens flashes!  Very Difficult...
(Add to that a unfortunate glare behind the shot...  But it's such a cute shot of five cousins that are having their picture taken together for one of the first times.)

it's been a while....

Where does the time go?
Like socks in the dryer... disappearances galore.
My time has "poofed" away.
No posts since October of 2008!
How can that be!
A lost camera, an uncharged video camera, a virus infected computer... What! No time to update that anti-viral software either!
What happens?
I am constantly doing things that keeps me from doing other things that leads to feeling as if I have accomplished absolutely nothing.
